	When I get on Sway In The Morning, believe I'mma rip it to shreds Teach Heather B how to properly turn up and twist-up them dreads Yet I'm still a nobody, nobody knows that yet, Yet... For now I'm yellin Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe magazine Kendrick on it with Miggy Tryna get my own cover, that's PARTySIZE with my whole party up wit'me But I just quit my job And rent, that's due next week So let's just bust this other line And stay on the grind in our sleep, Fxck yea Dream big, dream little, dream hard Life the roller coaster in my little theme park Like, you're never old enough to live a bit, right? You're never old enough to give a shxt... pshhh, psych 1 kite in a flag war, Patiently waiting on what? Eye to the sky, one direction - that's up Pride to the side, dummy, follow yo' gut Just do it Black and white [Ni']keys on my feet, Every step note-worthy I'm a G in the streets, I'm an alpha Bette -- that new Midler, betch and these Beaches ain't seeing me! Honey! Sea sick in a V6 Honey, no dramamine HO, NO DRAMA! No sign on me read "yo mama" No stoppin me, bro, no comma I'mma... Kill it with it entitlement Meant to be titled a legend Sum of her environment, one of its kind and ain't none of you mxtches impressin Blessings Cuz you need that, bless in peace and I mean that...

about

In the summer of 2013, a then struggling artist who calls herself The Last Artful, Dodgr decides to quit her job and pursue music full time. She writes a song about how when (note: not "if") she gets on Sway In The Morning, she'll "rip it to shreds" & how her career will proceed to take off from there.

In November of 2016, she gets her shot on the coveted radio show she had wished for, and she does, in fact, rip it to shreds.

Today, we give you the song that made it happen.

Let's see what happens from here...

Wonderfully psychedelic and bleary-eyed hip hop. Relaxing and calming raps over Mndsgn's chill, lo-fi, almost ethereal beats. A match made in the clouds. Storm Gaza
